Farewell Wharariki HealthPost Nature Trust

HealthPost has founded the Farewell Wharariki HealthPost Nature Trust to create a wondrous, accessible eco-sanctuary at Farewell Spit, in partnership with the Department of Conservation.

The Trust's vision is to greatly enhance biodiversity in the Farewell Spit area, allowing threatened species already there such as katipo spiders to flourish and creating a safe breeding habitat for bird species including fairy prions, shearwaters, godwits, petrels, bitterns and penguins. The ultimate goal is to build a rich and protected ecosystem that will allow for the reintroduction of rare and endangered species, such as the pateke (brown teal), the Little Spotted Kiwi and the Nelson Green Gecko.

It will be a place for people to experience this unique landform at the tip of the South Island as a thriving and diverse ecosystem. And for those who cannot visit Farewell Spit in person HealthPost and the Trust will frequently the update the progress being made, including one day the sight and sound of rare chicks being raised.

“This very generous offer from Healthpost will allow one of New Zealand’s most significant places, the iconic Farewell Spit and surrounds, to receive pest and weed control on a scale it deserves .Higher protection will be afforded to the iconic flocks of Godwits and Knots and wonderful flora and fauna of international significance . A brilliant project.” Craig Potton, Conservationist and Trustee.

The Farewell Wharariki HealthPost Nature Trust is a registered charity. It’s Charity Registration Number is CC54968.

HealthPost donates a dollar every time you select the Farewell Wharariki HealthPost Nature Trust after placing an online order. One click helps make this vision a reality!

HUHA - Helping You Help Animals

Red Cross work in Vanuatu

With Cyclone Pam causing catastrophic devastation in Vanuatu, we've asked that our latest donation to Red Cross NZ be used exclusively to help provide relief for the people of this island nation. The type of work Red Cross is doing in Vanuatu includes the distribution of essential household items, tarpaulins, shelter toolkits, safe drinking water and health and first aid programs. They will also be rolling out longer term recovery projects to support the stronger and safer rebuilding of damaged homes and of course the restoration and strengthening of livelihoods will also be crucial due to the significant damage to crops, livestock and fisheries.
